After much speculation, literary management outfit Grandview has officially been acquired by global investment firm TPG and will merge with the already TPG-owned talent management firm Untitled.

The combined company will be known as Untitled, while TPG has announced that its entertainment-centric outfit which it launched in the summer when it acquired a majority stake in Untitled will be named Initial Group. In todays announcement, TPG noted that Grandview will bolster Untitleds efforts in lit representation.

Jeff Silver and Matt Rosen, who co-founded Grandview, will be named managing partners with Untitleds founding partners Jason Weinberg and Stephanie Simon. Grandviews Merideth Bajana, Jeremy Platt, and Ben Rowe will join Untitled partners Evan Hainey, Elise Konialian, Jennifer Levine, Jason Newman, Steven Nossokoff, and Alissa Vradenburg. Grandviews client list includes top filmmaking names like Joseph Kosinski, Hiro Murai, Adam Wingard, and Dan Trachtenberg.

Ten years ago, we started Grandview to build a home for artists and those who represent them, said Silver and Rosen in a joint statement. We are incredibly proud of the culture that weve created, the support weve received from the community, and the storytellers that weve worked with the leading voices of their generation. Our guiding principles have always been Talent, Ambition, and Character. Jason and Stephanie have built Untitled from these shared ideals, and their commitment to their clients and colleagues is inspiring.

In partnering with TPG and Michel earlier this year, we identified an opportunity that will allow us toexpand our client offerings and develop new avenues for collaboration, said Weinberg and Simon. In Matt and Jeff, we found industry leaders in literary management, combined with a robust and exciting culture that they have fostered and that has attracted some of the most forward-thinking representatives over the past decade. We are excited to collaborate with the entire Grandview team and client roster in the years ahead.

Grandview has been at the center of sales conversations, previously having been in talks to be acquired Anonymous Content. Last year, Grandviews sister Automatik production company was merged with Range Media Partners.

As for TPG, the company sold its majority stakes in CAA last year to Artmis. More entertainment acquisitions are expected for Initial Group under CEO Michel Pratte.
